Is there a "Ironman BiS" list per class at 60? :p

Gutrot, a troll warrior leveled to 60 on Aerie Peak EU, no armor, unarmed with a +stamina offhand about 8-9 years ago, or something like that... probably others too, just remember following the progress of Gutrot on the forums every now and again.

Iron Man Challenge Rules
This is the original challenge. It's tough. VERY tough. The gist of the rules are to level a plain character that has no specialization, talents or skill boosts of any kind. You are only allowed to use whatever is available to your class if no specialization were chosen (Healthstones for Warlocks are OK, for example).
  • Do Not Die! - the most important rule of the challenge.
  • No Potions or Flasks used. We also check for Healthstones used if you are not a Warlock.
  • No Elixirs (except those that count as elixirs for quests).
  • Cannot join a party, raid or group with the intent of getting help to further yourself in the challenge.
  • No Vanilla raids completed.
  • No Battlegrounds allowed.
  • No Primary Professions allowed.
  • No Secondary Professions allowed EXCEPT FIRST AID.
  • No Talents Specs allowed.
  • Skills you have from your class (like Warlock Healthstones) ARE ALLOWED since these are available to your class without having to pick a talent spec.
  • No gear higher than White quality.
  • Cannot boost your character.
  • No food or other external buffs are allowed. Class abilities, racials and personal buffs (eg. Kings if you're a Paladin) are okay!

I've decided to give this a try. So far I'm level 14.

What about class specific things? - Hunter pet taming, Lock minions, druid forms.

You can use them.

With a bit of search I found the &#%!@?! who explode me and my hopes to reach 80 (level cap at that time).

I had almost forgotten about him after so many years before that topic blown up my convalescence :cry:

Too easy! White geared hunter to level cap with no pet. Now that would be fun (or insane).

Skills you have from your class (like Warlock Healthstones) ARE ALLOWED since these are available to your class without having to pick a talent spec.

Minions/Pets are also allowed, but I think the only spells you would be allowed to use on your pet would be the ones you get with the pet/Trainer.
